Text description provided by the architects. North of Viana do Castelo, between mountains and sea, Afife has views of wonderful landscapes that interlock perfectly. When the client showed me he had bought the land, it was hard to not be surprised by the fantastic panoramic view of the surrounding landscape and the sea.

In order to better relate with the land, the house sits on a platform created by the existing stone walls that define the topography of the site. Some of the existing stone walls were in ruins and had to be rebuilt.
